Henry09,

Not all ejections are injury free or successful. Some of the news stories published stated the pilot did eject however suffered serious injuries. The police statement to the media said the pilot was not with the aircraft, and they could not confirm or otherwise if the pilot had attempted to eject.

We need to let the MoD to get on with their investigation to piece together what exactly happened.

Sad day all round.
